“Managing Up to Level Up”
What does it mean to “manage up”?
At its core, managing up is all about owning your narrative and communicating in a way that earns trust in an organization. In this talk, Jess Wass will share Reworkit’s signature DUCK framework for managing up, including how to leverage the 3 Ps of proactive communication. Attendees will leave with a new perspective on how to communicate and collaborate with both cross-functional colleagues and external clients. And Leaders will be happy to see their team members learn to proactively communicate, own their work, and deliver quality results.
“Leading with Clarity: Eliminate Chaos, Ignite Results”
What if the biggest barrier to your team’s success is inadvertently you?
This workshop dives into the critical role leaders play in providing unambiguous direction for their teams and the consequences when we fail to provide clarity in key areas. We'll introduce the powerful GRPI model, a proven framework for establishing crystal-clear expectations that will unleash the power of your team. We’ll discover how a lack of clarity in these key areas can inadvertently foster infighting, stifle productivity, and create frustration within your team. By the end of this session, you'll gain actionable strategies to reduce tension, promote accountability, and empower your team to achieve its full potential.
